Orion wandered from room to room in search of his brother.
He knew how soft-hearted he was and in the middle of Poseidon's destruction of Malabour he wanted to keep him close before he'd do something stupid.
Unable to find him, he resorted to looking into the enchanted water.
He was horrified to see the kraken sucking the life out of his baby brother.
Instantly he morphed into his armour and headed for the sea
The kraken satisfied atlas was done for, flung him miles away from the sea and unto shore.
Orion found his brother's body beside rock, with haste he felt for a pulse but there was none.
In wild fright, he grabbed his brother and rocketed towards atlantis.
He forced ambrosia down his brother's throat and submerged him into the pool of healing.
He knew his brother's survive hanged in the balance.
His anger towards the kraken knew no bounds. With fist clenched, he made his way towards the surface I the sea, towards the kraken.
Poseidon felt a being approach the sea, the power surrounding the being was Egyptian.
It had been millenniums since the gods of Egypt crossed their boundary into that of the Olympians.
Poseidon gripped his trident tighter and propelled himself  out of the sea to meet the being, whoever it was.
Waya touched down on a deserted island, he knew being so close to Poseidon's realm meant Poseidon couldn't sense him.
He didn't wait long before Poseidon emerged from the sea in his half man half fish form.
He covered the distance between himself and Waya at tremendous speed.
He changed his form to full human was he stepped on the island.
"Waya" Poseidon spat
The un mistakable aura of the Egyptian god Ra oozed from the young god.
"I see Ra has provided acclivity to your powers" Poseidon continued.
When Waya spoke, there was  patent loathe in his voice.
"I challenge you to a fight to the death, no trident no realm advantage, just me and you".
Poseidon laughed maniacally
"You really believe you stand a chance against I a god emperor"
"I'll take my chances"
Poseidon cast his trident deep into the sea.
"I accept, Just so you know, av sent the kraken to destroy Athena and Malabour". The god emperor informed.

Waya's eyes widened
"Freya" he uttered involuntary.
"Oh that whore?, She's there as well".
Waya was incensed, he conjured two blades and with them in hand, lunged at the god emperor.
Waya swung his blades with deadly accuracy but Poseidon's dodges were too good for them.
Annoyed, Waya leaped into the air and came down hard on Poseidon blades first.
Poseidon grabbed the blades on either side of his hands and with a smirk broke them in half while simultaneously delivering a kick to Waya's chest sending him Yards into the air.
Waya recovered almost instantly, he was just getting warmed up. Again, he charged at Poseidon.
Orion surfed through the sea, evading the kraken's tentacles while simultaneously shooting arrows from his cosmic bow.
He tapped deep into the power of the sea and commanded a great deal of water.
He covered the kraken with the water and with his powers, froze him with it.
He flew towards the frozen kraken and with every ounce of immortality in him, delivered a massive blow to the kraken's face casing the ice to break and forcing the kraken to submerge into the sea. But he wasn't foolish to believe the beast would stay subdued so the king of Atlantis stayed on his guard.

Waya closed his eyes, channeled the energy of the sun within him and produced fire. He separated the fire and weilded it on either side of his hands.
Poseidon watched in amusement. He drew water from the atmosphere and awaited Waya's move.
Waya leaped into then air and performed a somersault which brought him considerably close to the god emperor.
Waya blasted Poseidon's face with the flames but the god-emperor quenched the flames with the water before it could get to him.
W

aya crouched and attempted to floor Poseidon by performing a leg sweep but the god-emperor leaped high into the air, he extracted water from the clouds then changed the form of the water into ice blades and caused them to fall atop Waya.
Waya quickly dived to the left and avoided what would have been a collosal damage.
Orion watched the waters carefully as anticipated, the kraken lashed out with its tentacles, Orion dodged the blow flawlessly but he didn't notice the second tentacle approaching him.
The blow was massive, Orion felt like he had been hit by Zeus's lightening bolt.
The force of the blow flung Orion far across the surface of the sea.
Without delay, the kraken made its way towards Orion.
Orion knew he had to recover before the kraken got to him unless he wished to have his name added to the long list of dead gods. With deep breaths he attempted to steady himself.
Waya covered the distance between himself and the god emperor, he hurled a fire ball at the god.
Poseidon diffused the fire with his powers, the split second of which Poseidon was distracted was all Waya needed. He channeled his anger and frustration into one punch and landed it square on Poseidon's jaw.
Poseidon was thrown yards across the island. Almost instantly, the god-emperor was back on his feet, blood trickled down his mouth.
Waya felt a sense of satisfaction watching Poseidon bleed.
Suddenly he felt a change in the air, in the sea and generally in the atmosphere.
Poseidon was furious and it showed in his eyes which glowed even brighter.
Waya took a deep breath and prepared himself for the onslaught which was sure to come.
Orion closed his eyes and tapped into the vast energy of the sea, he was king of Atlantis and he would be damned if he let his father's pet defeat him.
He exercised control over the  waters around the kraken. Using the waters, he ejected the kraken from the sea and threw him high into the air.
Immediately he fired arrow after arrow at the beast.
When the kraken fell back into the sea, it crashed it tentacles against the sea causing a violent sea storm but Orion was ready for he conjured a shield which protected him from the storm.
The kraken hurled it's tentacles at Orion, the tentacle broke through the shield and collided with Orion with such force it's flung the king of Atlantis deep into the sea.
Orion tough fervently to stay conscious for if he lost consciousness, he was as good as dead.
